On August 5, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is predicted to crash onto the Moon. What has crashed on the Moon before? The very first human object to touch the Moon - Luna 2 in 1959. A probe, 3 bombs, and a rocket body! 🧪 🔭

In 2022 a Chinese rocket impacted the Moon. 'The Moon is struck by meteors all the time. In many ways, the Falcon 9 impact will be just another one. What makes it interesting is how it acts as a litmus test for changing public opinions about our responsibilities to the space environment'. 🧪

Another excellent piece from @cassandrasteer.bsky.social: "This means you’d need to pay between $10 million and $20 million USD for one hour of very weak 20% of sunlight illumination. The most optimistic estimations suggest it would be a bit like twilight." spacecitizens.substack.com/p/selling-su...
